The licence will also provide HEFCE with regular upgrades and updates, ongoing software maintenance, product defect fixes and regulation compliance updates. In addition to this the licence will provide HEFCE with access to a cloud based platform with backups, data storage, operating system, database, provisioning, security, data centre and disaster recovery. HEFCE requires the licence to cover up to 400 employees.
